Whatever I might say about this place would inevitably still be deficient. The pictures posted here can only show a small fragment of the beauty. Pictures can’t capture the quiet, and the sound of the wind blowing and the birds singing. Pictures can’t capture how nice it is to watch the horses and sheep grazing on the hillside or how delicious the food is here or what it’s like to learn about the Maori peoples that had lived here long ago. The landscape here is, I think, the prettiest that I’ve ever seen. It’s simply beautiful. I can say that every few moments and it’s still not enough. Still, I hope you enjoy the photos.

Cape Kidnappers- New Zealand

The last week or so has been a bit of a blur because of the wedding and all of the contingent details: family, friends, last minute things to do and trying to make sure that skinnyskinny had enough inventory so that everything could function while I’m away. Brian and I have begun our honeymoon in New Zealand, after a forever-long flight and the resulting jet-lag. Most of today has been spent just recovering and trying to sync-up with the locals. This is the view from our hotel room in Prince’s Wharf in Auckland. Tomorrow, we will probably go to one of the farmer’s markets nearby before heading inland to Togariro (sp?). The trip has been lovely so far and should only get better.
